Step 1: Part One (Generator)- Step One

Notes: Drill the holes into the pen carefully The last two in of the pen was the naile epoxied on as well as duct taped in order to make longer Please find a different way of attaching the metal sticks together, this is NOT the best way Make sure the metal is towards the bottom of the pen Remove ink cartridge before drilling. FOR ALL GENERATOR STEPS TO COME I RECOMMEND LOOKING AT THIS LINK FOR THIS IS WHAT I BASED MY DESIGNS OFF OF. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdF_qWNXyhA

Step 8: Part One (Generator)- Step Eight

Step 9: Part One (Generator)- Step Nine

Put some copper wire just like the last one, but in the opposite direction, make sure wire does not cross and to sand the wire first, as well as have it touch the aluminum on both sides. twist the two ends of the SAME wire together on the same side of the box. As well as place cardboard circles underneath the pen/generator.

Step 10: Part One (Generator)- Step Ten

Use binder clips to bring the copper wire tighter to the aluminum, then put box on its side and hook up the bare copper wire to a voltmeter and while spinning measure the current and see if electricity is being produced.

Step 15: Part Three (Togetherness)- Step One

Step 16: Part Three (Togetherness)- Step Two

Rig a support system, Originally we had the thing below, then someone broke it, so we improvised and came up with this with the broken wood and left over duct tape.

Step 17: CONCLUSION

Since This was for, of all things, a Math project we are going to talk about some of the area and volume stuff. The volume of the pvc pipe is approximately 14.137166941154069573081895224758 cubic in. I got to this conclusion through finding the base of the pvc pipe through .5(radius) squared times pi, then I multiplied it by the height which is approximately 18 in to get 14.137166941154069573081895224758. I also found the volume of the water wheel which is the following equation: (8.5*3*8.5)- (6*3*0.25*4)-(0.5*0.5*pi*3)=196.39380551 cubic in meaning at any point in time the water is touching approximately 98.1969027549 cubic in. To find the total surface area of the water wheel do (8.5*8.5*.25)*2+(6*3)*8-(6*.25*8)+(1*pi*3)=177.549777961 in squared.

HOPE YOU ENJOYED AND ADAPTED OUR DESIGN TO MAKE IT BETTER, I know several ways to make this better next time, but PLEASE COMMENT ANY IDEAS FOR NEXT TIME.

We were planning to upload a picture of that but my voltmeter broke after the initial test :-( when we spun the motor alone though we got about 15 mv. not too much but that is probably because i didn't heed my own warnings above and improvised a lot. this was more for fun anyways, and to prove that we could do it.
